Leigh Hardingham works for National Trust NSW as part of the Bush management team, he has is also the author of Three Dancing Frogs, a brand new picture book collaboration with artist, Patrick Shirvington.
Three Dancing Frogs is a Children's Book that explores the connection between the natural world and our own inner creativity and expression. Set in the Australian Bush, three frogs put on a wonderful ballet concert for all the bush animals. As the ballerinas twirl and spin across the frog pond, musicians who include Fruit Bats, a Wombat and a Spider, amongst others, provide the musical background along with all the natural sounds of the bush. The audience is whisked up in the performance as the drama of the natural setting unfolds and surrounds them.
Patrick Shirvington has illustrated this new book. Pat spent his childhood immersed in nature, drawing the bushland subjects that were bountiful near his home. He studied accountancy, but found himself to be a square peg in a round hole, so decided to travel and follow his passion for art.
Pat and Leigh have created a video to discuss their creative process, watch here:
